View.Drawable Property
Gets or sets the drawing area that the map will be presented at.
Syntax
public Drawable Drawable { get; set; }Property Value
Default: Must be specified in constructor.
The drawing area that the map will be rendered into.
Remarks
In Carmenta Studio, the only available drawable type is a BitmapDrawable, so you will need to create one and attach to this property. When the application loads the configuration file and attaches the view to on of the map controls, the map control will typically create an internal window drawable attached to its window, and replace the existing drawable of the view. Most of the properties, like the background color, will be copied to the internal drawable. The width and height of the BitmapDrawable will be ignored; the internal drawable will adjust itself to the window size.
You can also set this property to a BitmapDrawable and call Update directly, without attaching the view to a map control. This will render the view to the bitmap; you can then use for instance Drawable.Save to save the map image to a file.
In certain situations you can also set this property to an ExternalDrawable.
